Well, the versioned dependency was required to fix #479731 so a
simple ${perl:Depends} is not sufficient in this case.  But thanks
for the dh_perl - cdbs issue.

I admit I fail to understand what exactly I should specify in the Depends.
My Perl knowledge is quite weak and I would immediately offer the package
to somebody who understands things better than me - I just saved it from
removal by taking it over.  I cant find any package perlapi-* and don't
know really what to do here.  So a real patch would be very helpful.

Kind regards

         Andreas.
